Engineered for commercial and industrial applications, the Square D FAL24015 delivers robust thermal-magnetic protection. This 15-amp breaker features fixed long-time and instantaneous trip functions. As a unit-mount F-Frame device, it installs into compatible Square D enclosures and switchboards via included lugs. While widely used, it is officially replaced by the PowerPacT HDL26015. Rated for 18kAIC at 480VAC, it handles demanding fault currents and includes a Visi-Trip indicator.
What is the modern replacement for the discontinued FAL24015?
The FAL24015 is a legacy F-frame breaker. Schneider Electric officially replaces it with the PowerPacT B-frame (BDL26015) or H-frame (HDL26015) molded case circuit breakers. Note that upgrading to a PowerPacT breaker may require mounting adapters or panel modifications.
What type of mounting does the FAL24015 require?
This is a unit-mount (panel-mount) circuit breaker. It secures directly to a backpan or mounting plate using screws and connects to the power source and load via feed-thru lugs. It is not compatible with plug-on I-Line panelboards.
Can the FAL24015 be used in direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, it is UL listed for direct current applications up to 250VDC with a 10kAIC rating, making it suitable for industrial DC control panels and battery systems.
Can I adjust the trip settings on the FAL24015?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit (LI). The trip settings are non-interchangeable and cannot be adjusted in the field.
Is the FAL24015 HACR rated?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires this specific certification.
How do I reset the FAL24015 after a trip?
When the breaker trips due to an overload or short circuit, the operating handle moves to a center position between 'ON' and 'OFF'. To reset the breaker, push the handle fully to the 'OFF' position before turning it back 'ON'.
